gloss black badge
A **gloss black badge** is an emblem, logo, or nameplate—typically on a vehicle—that has been finished in a shiny black coating instead of the standard chrome, silver, or colored finish.
It is often used for:
- **Aesthetic customization**, giving a vehicle a darker, more aggressive, or stealth appearance
- **Black-out styling packages**, where trim elements (badges, grilles, wheels, etc.) are finished in black
- **Special editions or trim levels**, where manufacturers replace chrome badges with gloss black versions
The term “gloss” indicates a smooth, reflective finish (as opposed to matte or satin black).
